Abstract

Knowledge management is important and necessary for the survival of an organisation and its superiority. It can be integrated into the philosophy of total quality management to play a role in the development of the basis of performance of modern organisations. It can be strengthened to achieve its strategic objectives. The total quality management philosophy seeks to achieve customer satisfaction through the commitment of the leadership of an organisation and its workers by a process of continuous improvement of the quality of performance in various aspects of an organisation. This study aims to identify the integration between knowledge management and total quality management, when applied to public Jordanian universities as a sample for the study, and to follow the descriptive analytical method research style. The online questionnaire responses were statistically analysed. The study found the presence of integrity and a strong correlation between knowledge management and total quality management.
